BRONX - A pair of gunmen stuck up a Bronx man for his Gucci bag across from a church and school. 




The NYPD released photos of a gray Honda Accord they say was involved in the Williamsbridge stickup. 




At around 9:30 pm on September 22, a 21-year-old man was walking in front of 3988 Bronxwood Avenue across the street from Our Lady of Grace Church and School. 



Suddenly two men jumped out of the parked gray Honda and stuck guns in his face. The gunmen removed the victim’s Gucci bag, jumped back in the Honda and sped off.
